Simble

Section titled “Simble”

Simple, tiny symbols. Human-readable strings up to 8 bytes long that can be stored inline and manipulated efficiently.

Why would I want this?

Section titled “Why would I want this?”

If:

  • you are working with human-readable strings that never exceed 8 bytes
  • the set of strings is not fixed at compile time, so you can’t use an enum

Then Simble offers:

  • efficient storage
  • fast comparisons and hashing

Optional features

Section titled “Optional features”
  • serde: Lexical and Printable both serialize/deserialize like a restricted String

Current nightly features

Section titled “Current nightly features”

Enable with the nightly feature:

  • const fns, so that you can define symbols that will be parsed at compile time
